Find your mentor.
Join the Opal community and get matched with a mentor who actually gets where you're trying to go.
Who this is for
You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to be curious about where you're headed.
We're looking for students and early-career professionals who:
Are exploring a career path or looking to grow in the one they're on
Want real, human guidance — not just advice from a search engine
Are open to connecting with someone who's been where they want to go
We especially welcome people from underrepresented backgrounds in tech and beyond. You belong here.
What being a mentee looks like
Monthly matching
Every month, we'll check in and ask if you'd like to be matched. Say yes, and we'll pair you with a mentor based on your goals, interests, and background. You'll spend the month working toward one goal together — guided by Opal every step of the way.
Priority Access to Gem programs & Spark Sessions
When Opal hosts a Spark Session or GEM Program, community mentees hear about it first. And if your profile is a strong fit for what a company partner is looking for, we may reach out to you directly.
A community that has your back
Inside our Slack, you'll find spot mentorship opportunities, peer connections, job postings, workshops, and a group of people who genuinely want to see you grow.
What to expect after you apply
You'll receive an invite to our Slack community
At the start of each month, we'll check in to see if you'd like to be matched
If you opt in, we'll pair you with a mentor and share everything you need to get started
At the end of the month, we'll collect feedback and ask if you'd like to go again
